According to second aspect, another pneumatic tire of the invention includes:Tyre surface;A pair of sidewall;A pair of bead;Carcass; And a pair of of strengthening course.The sidewall almost extends internally from the end of the tyre surface respectively in radial directions.The tyre bead In the inside for being separately positioned on the sidewall in the radial direction.The carcass along the tyre surface and the sidewall inside Extend on one in the tyre bead and another in the tyre bead and between the two tyre beads.The strengthening course exists It is arranged on axial direction in the outside of the carcass.The tyre bead include core and it is described in the radial direction respectively from the core to The apex strip of outer extension.The strengthening course is described in the radial direction along the carcass from the outer end of the apex strip Neighbouring part extends outwardly, and each strengthening course gradually becomes from the interior section of the strengthening course outward in the radial direction described Carefully.When reference position is defined as the following position on the outer surface of the pneumatic tire, the outer end of the apex strip Each of be arranged in the radial direction in the inside of the reference position described, wherein the position corresponds to when being filled described Air filled tyre is installed on wheel rim and is filled with the pneumatic tire and the wheel rim when air reaches normal internal pressure and connects each other The radially outward edge of tactile contact surface.The inner end of each strengthening course be arranged with the corresponding apex strip in the apex strip Outer end in a radial outward direction at a distance of 10mm position inside.
According to the third aspect, another pneumatic tire of the invention includes:Tyre surface;A pair of sidewall;A pair of of clinch;One To tyre bead;Carcass;A pair of of band;And a pair of of supporting course.The sidewall is several from the end of the tyre surface respectively in radial directions It extends internally.The clinch almost extends internally from the end on the sidewall respectively in the radial direction described.It is described Tyre bead is separately positioned on the inside of the clinch in the axial direction.The carcass is along the tyre surface and the sidewall Extend on another in one and the tyre bead of the inside in the tyre bead and between the two tyre beads.The tyre bead Including core and in the apex strip being arranged in the radial direction in the outside of the core.The carcass includes casingply. The casingply is dug on the axial direction from inside towards outside around the core.The casingply includes Major part and what is formed by digging the casingply dig part.The band is respectively in the apex strip Extend in the radial direction along the major part described in the part of radial outside.The supporting course is in the axial direction On be separately positioned on the outside of the band.When reference position is defined as the following position on the outer surface of the pneumatic tire When, the outer end of each apex strip is arranged in the radial direction described in the inside of the reference position, wherein the position pair Ying Yu is when the pneumatic tire is installed on wheel rim and is filled with the pneumatic tire and institute when air reaches normal internal pressure State the radially outward edge for the contact surface that wheel rim is in contact with each other.Each supporting course is described attached from the reference position in the radial direction Close part almost extends outwardly.
The advantageous effects of the present invention
In pneumatic tires according to the present invention, it is arranged second between part and clinch in digging for casingply Apex strip.Compared to conventional tire, in the tire, digs part and be located in axial inner part.This positioning allows Deformation is forbidden to concentrate on digging on part.The generation of loosening can be reduced, thus the excellent in te pins of durability of tire.
In tire, respectively digs part and be arranged between the first apex strip and the second apex strip.Part is dug the The major part of carcass is contacted in a part for the outer end radial outside of one apex strip.The outer end of second apex strip exists Outside in the end for digging part is set in the radial direction.First apex strip of tire is less than the triangle rubber of conventional tire Item.The first small apex strip allows major part to have suitable profile (also referred to as shell line).Specifically, in tire In, on the sectional view perpendicular to circumferential direction, major part has the profile similar to single arc.The profile allows to forbid becoming Shape is concentrated.The profile contributes to durability.In addition, the profile allows to forbid to be formed one with certain stiffness in side wall portion Part.In tire, the entirety of side wall portion suitably deforms.In tire, the entirety of side wall portion contributes effectively to just Degree.This deforms the steering stability for contributing to tire.
Tire includes the band extended from tyre bead along carcass.The position of the outer end of each band is equal in radial directions to be obtained The radially inner side of the position where obtaining maximum width is arranged in position or outer end where maximum width.Second triangle Adhesive tape is arranged between band and the first apex strip.Contribute to torsional rigidity in the face of tire together with band and the second apex strip. Band and the second apex strip contribute to steering stability.
In tire, it need not use in order to which durability needs and increases the clinch of thickness.In tire, bead part Dividing has small size.Small size allows heat to reduce.Heat reduces the durability for contributing to tire.
Above-mentioned small size allows bead part to have flexible structure.The flexible structure causes the vertical rigidity in tire low. Therefore, oscillation is reduced, and thus the noise in tire reduces.Particularly, in tire, can reduce frequency range 80Hz extremely Noise in 100Hz.The quietness of tire is excellent.
Therefore, it according to the present invention, can obtain improving the inflation of quietness and durability without reducing steering stability Tire.
In another pneumatic tire according to the present invention, using small apex strip, and strengthening course phase is suitably adjusted For the position of apex strip.The thickness of bead part can reduce, and thus the weight of tire can reduce.Since it is possible to obtain in high face Torsional rigidity, therefore although lateral stiffness is low, steering stability is advantageous.According to the present invention, weight saving can be obtained and The pneumatic tire of steering stability is not reduced.
In another pneumatic tire according to the present invention, the outer end of apex strip is arranged in radial directions to be referred to The inside of position.In tire, the apex strip with the length less than traditional triangle adhesive tape is used.Apex strip helps to subtract Light weight.There is tire band, band to extend in radial directions along major part in the part of the radial outside of apex strip. Band contributes to torsional rigidity in face.Tire carries out fast reaction to the operation of deflecting roller.The steering stability of tire is excellent.Tire Further include supporting course, supporting course in the axially external part of band in radial directions from the part near reference position almost Extend outwardly.Supporting course allows the acceleration as deflecting roller is rotated when speed is about 80km/h high Enhance stability under state.Supporting course helps to further increase steering stability.According to the present invention, can obtain improving steering Stability prohibits the increased pneumatic tire of quality simultaneously.
